Q146 Normalization

The Q146 Normalization module eliminates patch cord clutter for common patches that require pitch control voltages to go to oscillators and gate signals to go to envelope generators. This is accomplished with twelve 48"" cables (included) behind the panels - 6 to the oscillators and 6 to the envelope generators. Special switching jacks are provided so the pre-patched connections can be broken by simply patching through the front panel of normalized modules. Additionally, 3 extra multiple jacks are provided for both pitch voltages and gate signals. Normalization can also be made to other modules including sequencers, slew limiters, etc. The Q146 normalization module is typically mounted on the left side of a synthesizer system which has a left-to-right signal flow. A typical arrangement would include (from left to right) Q104 MIDI interface, Q105 Slew Limiter, Q146 Normalization, then the oscillators followed by other modules. The 12 cables behind the module
